April 19, 2021 Cinema Cemetery Episode 50: Annie Hall (1977)
“I don't want to move to a city where the only cultural advantage is being able to make a right turn on a red light”. Welcome to Annie Hall and the world according to Woody Allen. Part comedy, part romance, part tragedy, part animated film, and all neurosis, this classic film reimagines what a comedy can be. Starring Diane Keaton as the eponymous Annie Hall, and Woody Allen as Alvie Singer, this film works as an autopsy of a romance, and perhaps a city, that’s time has passed. Has the world moved on since 1977, or would Alvie Singer still be in analysis even today? Find out this week on Cinema Cemetery.

February 15, 2021 Cinema Cemetery: Episode 44- The French Connection (1971)
“Just answer me this: Do you…still pick your feet in Poughkeepsie?” A valid question and concern asked repeatedly by the one and only Popeye Doyle. This unconventional cop with a great intuition…at least most of the time…follows his next big lead as he tracks down a big drug deal in the making. With the support of his partner, and the begrudging help of his superiors, Popeye played by Gene Hackman shows the true success and drudgery of early 70s New York police work, along with one of the most thrilling car chases captured on camera. Will Popeye get his man, or will that subway car slip away? Check out Cinema Cemetery for the answer!
